A rust crate to interface and manage Wi-Fi networks.
- The command creates a new connection and then activates it on a device.
- This is a command-line counterpart of clicking an SSID in a GUI client.
- The command always creates a new connection and thus it is mainly useful for connecting to new Wi-Fi networks.
- If a connection for the network already exists, it is better to bring up (activate) the existing connection as follows:
WiFi::connection_up("SSID")
.
Note that only open, WEP and WPA-PSK networks are supported at the moment.
It is also supposed that IP configuration is obtained via DHCP.
- Windows
- Linux
- OSx
